The melted cheese is literally the same thing as cream.

>>11094498
italians are food autists, they will argue with you on anything assuming you aren't a fullbreed dego wop with half a pound of grease in your hair who rides a Vespa

>>11094634
cringe

>>11094634

Inverted brain the post

>>11094657

Like literally every recognizable food culture in the world

>carbonara

babbys first dish

>>11094695
No, Italians are definitely the most autismo when it comes to food.

>>11094721

I disagree

>>11094725
Okay Luigi.

>>11094498
I went to the farmers market to get some guanciale on Sunday but he ran out.I got some pancetta instead but now I have to work away. How long should the pancetta last if it's been plastic wrapped?

It's not only when it's about food. The old ones are cunts by default.

>>11094634
Is frozen cheese ice cream?

>>11094498

This.
Just find the most Italian looking person making a tutorial on YouTube and copy the recipe.

>>11094751
>>how long to cured meats last
there's a lot of variables for that, mainly if they've been dry-cured the old fashioned way or if they've been injected with cure/flavoring instead. The former I'd expect to last for months even without a refrigerator. The latter a few weeks.

>>11094721
Ok, post your chili con carne recipe and watch the spergefest. Or better yet, to put it into absolute trash food level, post your burger recipe and get slammed into one of your toxic waste rivers. Literally every culture has food autists that wail and gnash their teeth.

>>11094657
has Italian roommates in college they get this "every sauce is sacred" sort of mentality but it's only when other people are making it. The stuff they make is was way less than "authentic" but it never stops them from "muh culture" bullshit.

>>11094715
Carbonara is entry-tier. Babby tier dishes are like grilled cheese, chili, burgers. Carbonara has lots of nuance and technical aspects. You need to time the cooking of your spaghetti and your guanciale so one doesn't overcook while the other's not done. You need to add your spaghetti to your guanciale with the right amount of pasta water to it to create an emulsification and create a sauce. You need to add the eggs while the spaghetti and the sauce are hot enough so the eggs aren't raw but not too hot where they become scrambled.
I'm not saying carbonara is hard, but if you can cook it you can probably become a decent chef if you worked at it.

>>11096418
Or just use the dry sauce packets like everyone else. Babby tier

>>11096464
Those don't taste right

>>11094498
>*drops a pound of cheese in the pan and melts it in the pasta*
That's not what is supposed to happen and you know it. Anyone that does that is the kind of stupid amerishart that would put cream in it anyway. Fuck off.

>mama mia! It'sa notsa authentico likea mug great grandmadre useta makea!

>>11096418
Carbonara is a poor people food that manages to get faggots like you to wet their pants over anyone talking about it. Lol@u.

>>11098249
Exactly, it isn't even that good. It's just a way to get rid of extra eggs in a pasta dish.

protip over half of the "traditional" foods that people jizz their panties over in Italy are just poverty tier recipes that farm hands and laborers ate. Pasta, dried fish, zucchini, bell peppers, tomatoes, it's all dirt cheap shit that you could either grow yourself or get locally from your neighborhood dirt farmers.

>>11099187
It's not just Italy. It's every culture.

Half the shit on a classic French menu is poverty food, even at a fancypants 3-star place. Coq au vin? That was when the poor starving farmer didn't have anything to eat but the old stringy rooster. Cassoulet? A fancy name for "leftover stew". Etc. Hell, sushi had its roots as cheap street food back in the Edo period.

>be in italy
>ask for some limoncello with my pizza
>get laughed at in my face for the remainder of the evening

well excuse me I guess

>>11096388
Yeah. Don't tell me you buy different types of dairy products like an idiot? If you want dessert, freeze some cheese. If you don't like your coffee black, melt some cheese. Making a pie crust? Yeah, you can buy butter like a dumbass cuck, or you have cheese right the fuck there.

>>11099213
Why were they laughing at you? Is pairing limoncello with pizza frowned upon or something?

>>11099285
My friends told me later limoncello is pretty much exclusively for dessert

>>11094657
>>11096415
Get three Italians in a room to judge each other's cooking and the only thing you'll get them to agree on is that two of them aren't doing it right.

Literally everything we come to identify as Italian is from somewhere else. Try they act like it's part of their culture going back millennia.

>go to Italy
>speak no Italian whatsoever
>buy several litres of olive oil
>coat entire body and soak hair in olive oil
>dress exclusively in silk shirts from the mid 80s, tight pants and pointed pleather boots
>crucifix and no socks for good measure
>violently gestulate and yell in heavy italian American accent with knowing AHs! every one in a while
>eat like a king and always as my food is coming, pick up my drink, lift my pinky while my sunglasses are on and give a ride toothy smile and say an exaggerated grazie

Beautiful country and such accommodating people

>in italy
>order pizza with curry, banana and peanuts
